Mentioned the possibility of skipping the symlink for new versions of
git-annex. (Probably deserves a test once the new git-annex trickles
down to CI platforms.)
I stopped trying to explain each config parameter here. Rather, the doc
now shows the user how to ask git-annex to describe config parameters
with `--whatelse`.
This enables gitannex end-to-end tests to run on CI. Otherwise, the
version would not match and tests that check the rclone version would
fail like so:
```
=== RUN TestEndToEnd
e2e_test.go:199: Skipping due to rclone version: expected version "v1.67.0-DEV", but got "v1.67.0-beta.7905.220bbe24d.merge"
--- SKIP: TestEndToEnd (0.07s)
```
Issue #7625
For each layout mode, these tests start with a git-annex-remote-rclone
remote, migrate it to a git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin remote. They
verify that a file copied pre-migration is still present and that `git
annex testremote` passes.
Issue #7625
Now that e2e tests are running in parallel, undoing the chdir to the
temp dir was causing flaky failures on cleanup. We don't need it anyway
because the worrisome subcommands have their working directory
controlled by `runInRepo()`.
Issue #7625
I'm hopeful that running these in parallel will not impact CI runtime
very much, but that likely depends on the number of CPU cores and
whether the tmp filesystem is backed by memory vs a physical disk.
Issue #7625
TestEndToEndRepoLayoutCompat exercises git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin
and git-annex-remote-rclone on the same rclone remote to ensure they are
compatible. It repeats the same test for all known layout modes.
Issue #7625
This commit adds support for the same repo layouts supported by
git-annex-remote-rclone. This should enable git-annex users with remotes
of type "rclone" to switch to a "rclone-builtin" without needing to
retransfer content.
Issue #7625
This enables compatibility with versions of git-annex currently
available on GitHub's "ubuntu-latest" image, aka Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy.
Currently, Jammy is shipping git-annex 8.20210223-2ubuntu2.

Issue #7625
This commit implements milestone 2.1 for the gitannex subcommand:
https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7625#issuecomment-1951403856
This rewrite makes a few improvements over the old shell script:
(1) It no longer uses the system's rclone.conf. Now, it writes the
rclone.conf file in an ephemeral directory.
(2) It no longer makes any assumptions about the contents of /tmp.
However, it now assumes that an rclone built from the HEAD commit is on
the PATH. It makes a best-effort attempt to verify this assumption, but
I'm not sure it's bulletproof.
I'm hoping that writing this in Go will enable more cross-platform
support in the future, but for now we're still restricted to Unixy
systems due to reliance on the HOME environment variable.
Issue #7625
This commit adds a new subcommand named "gitannex", aka
"git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin" when invoked via a symlink.
This accomplishes milestone 1 from issue #7625: "minimal support for the
external special remote protocol".
Issue #7625
The flushCache() function has a bug that causes it to never actually
flush the cache. Specifically, it checks whether DirCacheFlush is nil,
but never calls it.
The tests are already passing without flushing the dir cache, so this
commit just deletes flushCache() and its call sites.
